The Knights Cross would require detailed photos from numerous angles, etc. to be properly verified....these pictures don't show the detail needed....but from what I can see....I wouldn't buy it. Beading on the frame seems poorly done and the markings oversized...(could be the camera)... plus several other things don't look good...

The GOBLET is PATHETIC..... an "SS GOBLET" .... you "jest", of course! 8O

The RK posted is authentic. The TK relic is laughable.

Excerpt from Wehrmacht Awards Forum :roll:

"The Knights Cross would require detailed photos from numerous angles, etc. to be properly verified....these pictures don't show the detail needed....but from what I can see....I wouldn't buy it.

I don't want to make fun of this but why is it so hard to not post when you know for yourself deep inside that you have no idea about the topic?

so do you own the TK goblet as well? Somebody made a mistake on your RK and good it got opinions in more than one place.

William, I've never seen that ugly goblet before, nor do I own the RK pictured here. As a matter of fact, with my limited knowledge regarding RK's, I choose not to comment on them in threads like this. Apparently you know something the guys on WAF don't (Dietrich Maerz included), but I'm sure you'll post there as well and set them straight. Please let us know the outcome.

cheers
Peter

If they say it's right as rain then I am sure it is fine but I still don't believe the tk goblet is anything to be taken seriously.

My bad William, I thought you said the RK was not authentic.
